Today’s Republican Party opposes big government. It’s culturally conservative. Its demographic support is strongest among white voters, and it usually dominates elections in the South. And its 2016 presidential nominee has been heavily criticized for inciting racial tensions.
But things weren’t always this way.
Over the past 160 or so years, the party has undergone a remarkable transformation from the party of Abraham Lincoln… to the party of Donald Trump.

To understand the context of Republican voters settling on Donald Trump, let's take a look at the history of the GOP.
The Grand Old Party was formed by antislavery forces in the 1850’s. Back then, the Republican party was actually the progressive party in American politics. The first Republican President was Abraham Lincoln, who was elected in what political scientists say was the first of three critical elections in American history. Before Lincoln was even inaugurated, seven southern slaveholding states had seceded from the Union, setting the stage for the Civil War. Lincoln and the Republicans in congress who controlled the Union won that war and freed the slaves. But after Lincoln was assassinated, during reconstruction, the Republican Party punished former leaders of the Confederacy by not allowing them to vote or hold office, and gave former slaves the right to vote. This turned whites in the south against the Republican Party for the next 100 years and led to the creation of theKlu Klux Klan and Jim Crow laws that enforced segregation and took the vote away from blacks.
In 1896 the second critical election in American history gave William McKinley the presidency and the Republicans large majorities in both houses of congress. This time-period cemented the Republicans as the party of low taxes, conservative social policies, and anti-government intervention in the economy, although legendary President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt tried to push the Party in a more progressive direction.
Fast-forward to after the stock market crash of 1929 when the country was in the depths of the Great Depression, but the Republicans refused to take direct government intervention to help the economy, leading to the third critical election in American history, in 1932, when DemocratFranklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal Coalition defeated incumbent Republican President Herbert Hoover by 413 electoral votes. “That the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” Roosevelt then enacted the most progressive social programs in history, won reelection three times, and led the US to an eventual victory in WWII.
The Republican-controlled congress never wanted to be out of power for that long again, so they approved the twenty-second amendment to the constitution, which limited presidents to just two terms in office.
After the war Roosevelt’s Democratic successor Harry Truman integrated the U.S. military - a move that angered many white southern Democrats who began switching to the Republican Party.
In 1952, Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower - the World War IISupreme Allied Commander - became President. His centrist governing style went a long way toward normalizing Roosevelt’s expanded role for the federal government.
In 1964 Democratic President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act which was intended to end discrimination, especially in the south. This moment, more than any other, defined the parties as we still know them today, with the Democrats coming full circle from being the party of the Confederacy 100 years earlier, to ultimately embracing diversity and equal rights; whereas the Republican Party shifted significantly to the right on social issues as it happily took in the many white voters abandoning the Democrats.
This shift was on full display, as 11 southern states voted for the Republican Richard Nixon.
Six years after Nixon’s Presidency ended in disgrace after the Watergate scandal, the Republicans finally had a leader they could be proud of in the former actor and Governor of CaliforniaRonald Reagan. Reagan took advantage of a bad economy and the Iran hostage crisis to defeat sitting President Jimmy Carter in a landslide and became the father of modern conservatism with deep tax cuts and a massive buildup of the U.S. military that helped facilitate the fall of the Soviet Union.
Reagan was followed by his Republican Vice President, George H.W.Bush, who helped cement many of Reagan’s signature policies.
Bill Clinton’s democratic presidency was dangerous for Republicans in that he was a charismatic white southerner capable of making inroads with the Republican base, so to counter his appeal, they highlighted his infidelities, a tactic that was largely successful in tainting his presidency despite Clinton’s success in building a strong economy and securing a relatively peaceful world...

The Republicans Are Bailing on Trump | The Resistance with Keith Olbermann | GQ

Donald Trump is not happy with Republicans in the House and Senate, but they aren’t too thrilled with him, either. Reports say that members of the Trump administration are insulting and demeaning people like Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, which isn’t a smart decision considering that these men are the ones standing between Trump and impeachment. Add to that the fact that wealthy Republican donors are growing tired of Trump, and that Republican wall of protection in the House begins to crumble. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Technically, at this point, there is only one group of people standing in the way of Donald Trump and impeachment. Those people are the Republicans in the House of Representatives led by Paul Ryan. You would think, as any rational human being would do, when you understand you only have one set of allies protecting you from certain doom basically, you'd probably want to be nice then. You'd probably not want to be a complete jackass and have members of your staff like Steve Bannon openly insulting them and calling them names and saying that they're worthless and useless leaders.
However, that’s exactly what's happening within the Trump Administration. Donald Trump is losing his only allies in Congress, and that significantly hurts his chances of surviving for four years as president. If he continues to alienate people like Paul Ryan in the House and Mitch McConnell in the Senate, because the Senate's the one that has to vote for conviction, he's not going to have anybody there to protect him when we finally get the information that we need to go forward with full-blown impeachment.
Now articles of impeachment have already been filed. Those likely will go nowhere. I'm hoping they get rescinded or hoping they get built upon if the Bob Mueller special prosecutor investigation concludes at a timely manner before these articles get decided upon. There will be something, I have no doubt, that could lead to Donald Trump's impeachment, but if he has those allies in the House, it will not go far whatsoever. It has no chance. He doesn’t seem to understand that sometimes you got to play nice with other people in order to save your own ass, because that’s what's at stake here, Mr. Trump.
Meanwhile, Steve Bannon is out there calling Paul Ryan some pretty horrible names, names that I haven't even called Paul Ryan, and you're just letting it happen. If Paul Ryan chose, he could absolutely bring those articles of impeachment to a vote. He could meet with his Republicans behind closed doors and say, "Let's get him out of there. We can work better with Pence anyway." I would suggest you understand that Paul Ryan at this point probably has a little bit more power than you do, buddy.
Furthermore, it's not just Republicans in the House of Representatives or the Senate that are starting to get annoyed with Donald Trump. The Republican donor class is tired of Donald Trump, according to a new report on Alternet, and they're ready to start dealing with President Pence. They understand that Donald Trump is not a uniter, he's not a leader. He's not somebody that a majority of Republicans in the House or Senate and even the country are going to rally behind. He's not the kind of guy that brings people together and, unfortunately for the Republican donor class, if they want those precious little gifts like tax breaks, they're going to have to have all of the Republicans working together and possibly even some of the Democrats. Donald Trump isn't the guy to do that, but Mike Pence would. He's a great puppet for the wealthy elite.
While that would be bad for the country, the Republican donor class understands that they can get their members in the House, the people they’ve bought and paid for, to turn on Donald Trump and absolutely go forward with impeachment. Things are looking really bad for Donald Trump right now, and, unfortunately, regardless of the outcome, things are going to be bad for this country. One way or another, this ruling class is going to get what they want, at least to some extent. The only way to counter that is to let it happen now because, unfortunately, I don’t think there's enough to fight it, and then vote these Republicans out of office in 2018, get Pence or Trump or whoever it is out of office in 2020 and start making the government once again work for the people instead of just the wealthy elite.

Trump is a native of New York City and a son of Fred Trump, who inspired him to enter real estate development. After two years at Fordham University and while studying at Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Trump worked for his father's firm, Elizabeth Trump & Son. Upon graduating in 1968 he joined the company, and in 1971 was given control, renaming the company "The Trump Organization". Since then he has built hotels, golf courses, and other properties, many of which bear his name. He is a major figure in the American business scene and has received prominent media exposure. The NBC reality show The Apprentice bolstered his fame, and his three marriages were extensively reported in tabloids.

Trump

A trump is a playing card which is elevated above its normal rank in trick-taking games. Typically an entire suit is nominated as a trump suit - these cards then outrank all cards of plain (non-trump) suits. In other contexts, the term trump card can refer to any sort of action, authority, or policy which automatically prevails over all others.

Etymology

The word "trump" derives from "trionfi" or "triumph", documented as the name of a card game in 1529 and which spawned the game Ruff and Honours, which in turn led to Whist. Trionfi was also the name of the original card game for which tarot cards were designed, and in it the tarot cards had the role of what are now called trumps; later card games, beginning with Triomphe, started using one of the ordinary suits as a replacement for the tarots when a tarot pack was not available.

Trump in card games

In most games, the relative rank of cards within a suit is the same in trump and plain suits, but they may sometimes differ, for example in Klabberjass, Euchre, or Eighty Points.

The Republican donor class is tired of Donald Trump, according to a new report on Alternet, and they're ready to start dealing with President Pence. They understand that Donald Trump is not a uniter, he's not a leader. He's not somebody that a majority of Republicans in the House or Senate and even the country are going to rally behind. He's not the kind of guy that brings people together and, unfortunately for the Republican donor class, if they want those precious little gifts like tax breaks, they're going to have to have all of the Republicans working together and possibly even some of the Democrats. Donald Trump isn't the guy to do that, but Mike Pence would. He's a great puppet for the wealthy elite.
While that would be bad for the country, the Republican donor class understands that they can get their members in the House, the people they’ve bought and paid for, to turn on Donald Trump and absolutely go forward with impeachment. Things are looking really bad for Donald Trump right now, and, unfortunately, regardless of the outcome, things are going to be bad for this country. One way or another, this ruling class is going to get what they want, at least to some extent. The only way to counter that is to let it happen now because, unfortunately, I don’t think there's enough to fight it, and then vote these Republicans out of office in 2018, get Pence or Trump or whoever it is out of office in 2020 and start making the government once again work for the people instead of just the wealthy elite.

Marco Rubio Makes It Clear: Republicans Will Cut Social Security And Medicare After Tax Cuts Pass

In an interview with Politico this past week, RepublicanSenator Marco Rubio made it painfully clear that his Party intends to cut Social Security and Medicare funding in the months to come, after they end up passing their corporate tax cuts, of course. The goal of the Republican Party is perfectly clear: They want to give everything they can to corporations while taking everything away from the rest of us. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Republican Florida Senator Marco Rubio gave an interview with Politico this week, where he explained, without mincing words whatsoever, that once the Republicans are finished with their disgusting tax cut package for millionaires and billionaires, they're going to help offset those costs by cutting Social Security and Medicare in the United States.
Now, if you're unfamiliar with those programs, Social Security is the program that you pay into throughout your entire life, so that you can get a little bit of money back when you retire. Maybe it's enough so you don't have to work. In most cases, it's enough to where a part-time job and your Social Security money will be able to get you through during your golden years. You'll never be able to fully retire, but at least you'll have a little bit coming to you.
Medicare is the program for senior citizens that provides partial health insurance for some things, doesn't cover everything. Most of them have to go buy a supplemental plan, but at least it helps them out to an extent. And Marco Rubio says that, because these Republican tax cuts are going to, you know, add trillions to the deficit, those nasty little Social Security and Medicare payments are going to be drastically reduced, because we've gotta get more money to the rich in the United States.
Marco Rubio wants to send your grandparents, or possibly even yourself, he wants to ship you down the river, because he wants to give more money to his wealthy donors. Grandma and Grandpa, in this instance, are going to be screwed. They're never going to be able to retire. They're going to keep working until the day they die, just because they won't be able to afford health insurance. And they won't be able to retire, because Social Security will be cut down to nothing.
And more importantly, Rubio's absolutely lying. During this Politico interview, Rubio told us that the main drivers of the debt and the deficit are Social Security and Medicare, because the way those programs are structured is just screwing everything up. There are no facts in this country that support Rubio's claim, there. None.
There is nothing wrong with Social Security. There is nothing wrong with Medicare. The only problem with those two programs is that they don't go far enough. Marco Rubio is a liar. Marco Rubio is a human sack of crap. How about that? How about we just stop mincing words? How about we stop being polite? How about we just call these morons what they are, because that's the point that I am at, here.
I am absolutely sick and tired of seeing these disgusting, worthless wastes of oxygen, people like Marco Rubio, going forward, lying to the public, lying with a straight face, lying with impunity, screwing over everyone so that they can give their wealthy donors more money. That is what this is about. That is what Republicans want to do, and that is the only thing they know how to do.
So Grandma, Grandpa, Mom, Dad, brothers and sisters, you're gonna get screwed under the Republican rule that currently takes hold in Washington, D.C. But the wealthy elite, if you're already a millionaire, already a billionaire and have nothing to worry about, they want to actually just hand you more cash each year, because they're hopeful some of that cash is going to find its way back into their campaigns. These people are absolutely disgusting.

But things weren’t always this way.
Over the past 160 or so years, the party has undergone a remarkable transformation from the party of Abraham Lincoln… to the party of Donald Trump.

Trump Is Losing Support From The Republicans Standing Between Him And Impeachment

Donald Trump is not happy with Republicans in the House and Senate, but they aren’t too thrilled with him, either. Reports say that members of the Trump administration are insulting and demeaning people like Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, which isn’t a smart decision considering that these men are the ones standing between Trump and impeachment. Add to that the fact that wealthy Republican donors are growing tired of Trump, and that Republican wall of protection in the House begins to crumble. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

To understand the context of Republican voters settling on Donald Trump, let's take a look at the history of the GOP.
The Grand Old Party was formed by antislavery forces in the 1850’s. Back then, the Republican party was actually the progressive party in American politics. The first Republican President was Abraham Lincoln, who was elected in what political scientists say was the first of three critical elections in American history. Before Lincoln was even inaugurated, seven southern slaveholding states had seceded from the Union, setting the stage for the Civil War. Lincoln and the Republicans in congress who controlled the Union won that war and freed the slaves. But after Lincoln was assassinated, during reconstruction, the Republican Party punished former leaders of the Confederacy by not allowing them to vote or hold office, and gave former slaves the right to vote. This turned whites in the south against the Republican Party for the next 100 years and led to the creation of theKlu Klux Klan and Jim Crow laws that enforced segregation and took the vote away from blacks.
In 1896 the second critical election in American history gave William McKinley the presidency and the Republicans large majorities in both houses of congress. This time-period cemented the Republicans as the party of low taxes, conservative social policies, and anti-government intervention in the economy, although legendary President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt tried to push the Party in a more progressive direction.
Fast-forward to after the stock market crash of 1929 when the country was in the depths of the Great Depression, but the Republicans refused to take direct government intervention to help the economy, leading to the third critical election in American history, in 1932, when DemocratFranklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal Coalition defeated incumbent Republican President Herbert Hoover by 413 electoral votes. “That the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” Roosevelt then enacted the most progressive social programs in history, won reelection three times, and led the US to an eventual victory in WWII.
The Republican-controlled congress never wanted to be out of power for that long again, so they approved the twenty-second amendment to the constitution, which limited presidents to just two terms in office.
After the war Roosevelt’s Democratic successor Harry Truman integrated the U.S. military - a move that angered many white southern Democrats who began switching to the Republican Party.
In 1952, Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower - the World War IISupreme Allied Commander - became President. His centrist governing style went a long way toward normalizing Roosevelt’s expanded role for the federal government.
In 1964 Democratic President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act which was intended to end discrimination, especially in the south. This moment, more than any other, defined the parties as we still know them today, with the Democrats coming full circle from being the party of the Confederacy 100 years earlier, to ultimately embracing diversity and equal rights; whereas the Republican Party shifted significantly to the right on social issues as it happily took in the many white voters abandoning the Democrats.
This shift was on full display, as 11 southern states voted for the Republican Richard Nixon.
Six years after Nixon’s Presidency ended in disgrace after the Watergate scandal, the Republicans finally had a leader they could be proud of in the former actor and Governor of CaliforniaRonald Reagan. Reagan took advantage of a bad economy and the Iran hostage crisis to defeat sitting President Jimmy Carter in a landslide and became the father of modern conservatism with deep tax cuts and a massive buildup of the U.S. military that helped facilitate the fall of the Soviet Union.
Reagan was followed by his Republican Vice President, George H.W.Bush, who helped cement many of Reagan’s signature policies.
Bill Clinton’s democratic presidency was dangerous for Republicans in that he was a charismatic white southerner capable of making inroads with the Republican base, so to counter his appeal, they highlighted his infidelities, a tactic that was largely successful in tainting his presidency despite Clinton’s success in building a strong economy and securing a relatively peaceful world...

The Republicans Are Bailing on Trump | The Resistance with Keith Olbermann | GQ

Donald Trump is not happy with Republicans in the House and Senate, but they aren’t too thrilled with him, either. Reports say that members of the Trump administration are insulting and demeaning people like Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, which isn’t a smart decision considering that these men are the ones standing between Trump and impeachment. Add to that the fact that wealthy Republican donors are growing tired of Trump, and that Republican wall of protection in the House begins to crumble. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Technically, at this point, there is only one group of people standing in the way of Donald Trump and impeachment. Those people are the Republicans in the House of Representatives led by Paul Ryan. You would think, as any rational human being would do, when you understand you only have one set of allies protecting you from certain doom basically, you'd probably want to be nice then. You'd probably not want to be a complete jackass and have members of your staff like Steve Bannon openly insulting them and calling them names and saying that they're worthless and useless leaders.
However, that’s exactly what's happening within the Trump Administration. Donald Trump is losing his only allies in Congress, and that significantly hurts his chances of surviving for four years as president. If he continues to alienate people like Paul Ryan in the House and Mitch McConnell in the Senate, because the Senate's the one that has to vote for conviction, he's not going to have anybody there to protect him when we finally get the information that we need to go forward with full-blown impeachment.
Now articles of impeachment have already been filed. Those likely will go nowhere. I'm hoping they get rescinded or hoping they get built upon if the Bob Mueller special prosecutor investigation concludes at a timely manner before these articles get decided upon. There will be something, I have no doubt, that could lead to Donald Trump's impeachment, but if he has those allies in the House, it will not go far whatsoever. It has no chance. He doesn’t seem to understand that sometimes you got to play nice with other people in order to save your own ass, because that’s what's at stake here, Mr. Trump.
Meanwhile, Steve Bannon is out there calling Paul Ryan some pretty horrible names, names that I haven't even called Paul Ryan, and you're just letting it happen. If Paul Ryan chose, he could absolutely bring those articles of impeachment to a vote. He could meet with his Republicans behind closed doors and say, "Let's get him out of there. We can work better with Pence anyway." I would suggest you understand that Paul Ryan at this point probably has a little bit more power than you do, buddy.
Furthermore, it's not just Republicans in the House of Representatives or the Senate that are starting to get annoyed with Donald Trump. The Republican donor class is tired of Donald Trump, according to a new report on Alternet, and they're ready to start dealing with President Pence. They understand that Donald Trump is not a uniter, he's not a leader. He's not somebody that a majority of Republicans in the House or Senate and even the country are going to rally behind. He's not the kind of guy that brings people together and, unfortunately for the Republican donor class, if they want those precious little gifts like tax breaks, they're going to have to have all of the Republicans working together and possibly even some of the Democrats. Donald Trump isn't the guy to do that, but Mike Pence would. He's a great puppet for the wealthy elite.
While that would be bad for the country, the Republican donor class understands that they can get their members in the House, the people they’ve bought and paid for, to turn on Donald Trump and absolutely go forward with impeachment. Things are looking really bad for Donald Trump right now, and, unfortunately, regardless of the outcome, things are going to be bad for this country. One way or another, this ruling class is going to get what they want, at least to some extent. The only way to counter that is to let it happen now because, unfortunately, I don’t think there's enough to fight it, and then vote these Republicans out of office in 2018, get Pence or Trump or whoever it is out of office in 2020 and start making the government once again work for the people instead of just the wealthy elite.

Republicans F0RSAKE DECENCY To Support Roy Moore, "Witness The END 0F the Republican Party"

In an interview with Politico this past week, RepublicanSenator Marco Rubio made it painfully clear that his Party intends to cut Social Security and Medicare funding in the months to come, after they end up passing their corporate tax cuts, of course. The goal of the Republican Party is perfectly clear: They want to give everything they can to corporations while taking everything away from the rest of us. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Republican Florida Senator Marco Rubio gave an interview with Politico this week, where he explained, without mincing words whatsoever, that once the Republicans are finished with their disgusting tax cut package for millionaires and billionaires, they're going to help offset those costs by cutting Social Security and Medicare in the United States.
Now, if you're unfamiliar with those programs, Social Security is the program that you pay into throughout your entire life, so that you can get a little bit of money back when you retire. Maybe it's enough so you don't have to work. In most cases, it's enough to where a part-time job and your Social Security money will be able to get you through during your golden years. You'll never be able to fully retire, but at least you'll have a little bit coming to you.
Medicare is the program for senior citizens that provides partial health insurance for some things, doesn't cover everything. Most of them have to go buy a supplemental plan, but at least it helps them out to an extent. And Marco Rubio says that, because these Republican tax cuts are going to, you know, add trillions to the deficit, those nasty little Social Security and Medicare payments are going to be drastically reduced, because we've gotta get more money to the rich in the United States.
Marco Rubio wants to send your grandparents, or possibly even yourself, he wants to ship you down the river, because he wants to give more money to his wealthy donors. Grandma and Grandpa, in this instance, are going to be screwed. They're never going to be able to retire. They're going to keep working until the day they die, just because they won't be able to afford health insurance. And they won't be able to retire, because Social Security will be cut down to nothing.
And more importantly, Rubio's absolutely lying. During this Politico interview, Rubio told us that the main drivers of the debt and the deficit are Social Security and Medicare, because the way those programs are structured is just screwing everything up. There are no facts in this country that support Rubio's claim, there. None.
There is nothing wrong with Social Security. There is nothing wrong with Medicare. The only problem with those two programs is that they don't go far enough. Marco Rubio is a liar. Marco Rubio is a human sack of crap. How about that? How about we just stop mincing words? How about we stop being polite? How about we just call these morons what they are, because that's the point that I am at, here.
I am absolutely sick and tired of seeing these disgusting, worthless wastes of oxygen, people like Marco Rubio, going forward, lying to the public, lying with a straight face, lying with impunity, screwing over everyone so that they can give their wealthy donors more money. That is what this is about. That is what Republicans want to do, and that is the only thing they know how to do.
So Grandma, Grandpa, Mom, Dad, brothers and sisters, you're gonna get screwed under the Republican rule that currently takes hold in Washington, D.C. But the wealthy elite, if you're already a millionaire, already a billionaire and have nothing to worry about, they want to actually just hand you more cash each year, because they're hopeful some of that cash is going to find its way back into their campaigns. These people are absolutely disgusting.

Donald Trump Teases a President Bid During a 1988 Oprah Show | The Oprah Winfrey Show | OWN

Donald Trump is perhaps best known for the money he's made (and lost) in real estate, his less-than-humble demeanor and his hit reality TV show, 'The Apprentice'. In recent years, the business tycoon has also been chasing the dream of holding the highest office in the land. Although many people know he has been eyeing the Oval Office for a couple of election cycles, you may be surprised to learn just how far back his presidential aspirations reach. Watch as Donald, in a 1988 appearance on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show', shares his thoughts on running for office. For more on #oprahwinfreyshow, visit http://bit.ly/1ODj0x7

It is just a quick video of my strategy of winning the Spanish Civil War as Republican Spain. Mostly, build industry on the side you want to play as. Do not do the industrial national focus to avoid giving the other side an advantage. Instead, research weapons and land doctrines. When the war comes around, and you pick your side focus mainly on guns and march your troops into any open territory, AI can be quite stupid. Gives you the "Bell tolls for us" achievement.

US President Barack Obama's budget is 244 pages long but it is one paragraph on page 46 that has earned him praise from the Republicans. On first reading, it seems like a simple accounting change. The president plans to switch the way social security benefits are indexed for inflation - from the standard Consumer Price Index to what is called the chained CPI. But in fact the action has enormous significance, not just to the millions of poor and elderly who may find themselves unable to keep up with the cost of living in the future, but to the whole debate over budgets in Washington. FinallyPresident Obama has officially accepted a long held goal of the right and made social security...

GERALD CELENTE: The Republicans & Democrats Are Thieves & Murderers

Our favorite economic and trends analyst in the world, Gerald Celente from the Trends Journal returns to SGTReport to discuss the current state of affairs in the United States and beyond. SGT Report contributor Mark S. Mann also joins in on the conversation.
As for our elected "representatives", the Republicans and Democrats, Gerald says, "They're murderers and thieves. They murder millions of people in the name of bringing 'freedom and democracy' to a country near you, and steal our money in the name of too big to fail bailouts, loan guarantees, special tax breaks and other dirty deals - and the people KNOW IT."
As we dive deeper into the interview, Mark asks Gerald about Benjamin Netanyahu's recent speech in front of the US Congress and the $6 BILLION in "aid" the US government gives...

Resolved: The Republicans Are Better Able to Run the Country for the Next 4 Years than the Democrats

Stealing an Election: How the Republicans Won the Electoral College in 2004 (2006)

According to this criticism, the electoral college reduces elections to a mere count of electors for a particular state, and, as a result, it obscures any voting problems within a particular state. For example, if a particular state blocks some groups from voting, perhaps by voter suppression methods such as imposing reading tests, poll taxes, registration requirements, or legally disfranchising specific minority groups, then voting inside that state would be reduced. But the state's electoral count would be the same. So disenfranchisement has no effect on the overall electoral tally. Critics contend that such disenfranchisement is partially obscured by the Electoral College. A related argument is the Electoral College may have a dampening effect on voter turnout: there is no incentive for...

Mark Levin: Does Trump and the Republicans believe in "Made in America week" & other topics

PresidentTrump is making this week "Made in AmericaWeek." Does he and the Republican Party really believe in it? Why adopt a European style socialized healthcare system? That system means rationing and lines. If we really believe in "Made in America" we will adopt a healthcare system that will help our coal workers, steel workers and all Americans. Made in America is about liberty and individualism and that we are mature enough to decide what kind of healthcare we want. In addition, what the Republicans are proposing is not going to reduce deductibles or the cost of care. This bill is a loser and should not be voted for - Mark Levin says (July 17 2017)

US President Barack Obama's budget is 244 pages long but it is one paragraph on page 46 that has earned him praise from the Republicans. On first reading, it seems like a simple accounting change. The president plans to switch the way social security benefits are indexed for inflation - from the standard Consumer Price Index to what is called the chained CPI. But in fact the action has enormous significance, not just to the millions of poor and elderly who may find themselves unable to keep up with the cost of living in the future, but to the whole debate over budgets in Washington. FinallyPresident Obama has officially accepted a long held goal of the right and made social security just another bargaining chip in negotiations. In total, the budget proposes cuts of more than $1 trillion from government programmes. But there was some comfort for the base - the president wants nearly $250m in spending on jobs, public works and an expansion in pre-school education. He has also proposed $800bn in new taxes.

Our favorite economic and trends analyst in the world, Gerald Celente from the Trends Journal returns to SGTReport to discuss the current state of affairs in the United States and beyond. SGT Report contributor Mark S. Mann also joins in on the conversation.
As for our elected "representatives", the Republicans and Democrats, Gerald says, "They're murderers and thieves. They murder millions of people in the name of bringing 'freedom and democracy' to a country near you, and steal our money in the name of too big to fail bailouts, loan guarantees, special tax breaks and other dirty deals - and the people KNOW IT."
As we dive deeper into the interview, Mark asks Gerald about Benjamin Netanyahu's recent speech in front of the US Congress and the $6 BILLION in "aid" the US government gives to Israel annually, Gerald explains that Israel is a nuclear power and an apartheid state - and sounding a lot like Dr. Ron Paul, Celente explains, "I'm against giving money to Israel as I am against giving it to any other country. This country is rotting in front of us. The infrastructure stinks. The country's going downhill. I don't want my money going to Israel, to Italy, to Ireland, I don't want it going any where. And when you talk about Israel, the people try to attack you with this cheap BS line of 'anti-Semitism,'. Let's get this straight: Israel's a country, it's not a religion."
Buckle up as we spend the next half-hour with the number one trend's forecaster in the world.

Resolved: The Republicans Are Better Able to Run the Country for the Next 4 Years than the Democrats

Stealing an Election: How the Republicans Won the Electoral College in 2004 (2006)

According to this criticism, the electoral college reduces elections to a mere count of electors for a particular state, and, as a result, it obscures any voting problems within a particular state. For example, if a particular state blocks some groups from voting, perhaps by voter suppression methods such as imposing reading tests, poll taxes, registration requirements, or legally disfranchising specific minority groups, then voting inside that state would be reduced. But the state's electoral count would be the same. So disenfranchisement has no effect on the overall electoral tally. Critics contend that such disenfranchisement is partially obscured by the Electoral College. A related argument is the Electoral College may have a dampening effect on voter turnout: there is no incentive for states to reach out to more of its citizens to include them in elections because the state's electoral count remains fixed in any event. According to this view, if elections were by popular vote, then states would be motivated to include more citizens in elections since the state would then have more political clout nationally. Critics contend the electoral college system insulates states from negative publicity as well as possible federal penalties for disenfranching subgroups of citizens.
Legal scholars Akhil Amar and Vikram Amar have argued the original Electoral College compromise was enacted partially because it enabled the southern states to disenfranchise its slave populations.[112] It permitted southern states to disfranchise large numbers of slaves while allowing these states to maintain political clout within the federation by using the three-fifths compromise. They noted that constitutional Framer James Madison believed the question of counting slaves had presented a serious challenge but that "the substitution of electors obviated this difficulty and seemed on the whole to be liable to the fewest objections."[113] Akhil and Vikram Amar added that:
The founders' system also encouraged the continued disfranchisement of women. In a direct national election system, any state that gave women the vote would automatically have doubled its national clout. Under the Electoral College, however, a state had no such incentive to increase the franchise; as with slaves, what mattered was how many women lived in a state, not how many were empowered ... a state with low voter turnout gets precisely the same number of electoral votes as if it had a high turnout. By contrast, a well-designed direct election system could spur states to get out the vote.
— Akhil and Vikram Amar
The Twelfth Amendment requires each elector to cast one vote for president and another vote for vice president.[4] In each state and the District of Columbia, electors are chosen every four years on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November, and then meet to cast ballots on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December.[5] The candidates who receive an absolute majority of electoral votes among the states are elected President and Vice President of the United States when the Electoral College vote is certified by Congress in January.
Each state chooses electors, amounting in number to that state's combined total of senators and representatives. There are a total of 538 electors, corresponding to the 435 representatives and 100 senators, plus the three electors the District of Columbia is provided by the Twenty-third Amendment.[6] The Constitution bars any federal official, elected or appointed, from being an elector. The Office of the Federal Register is charged with administering the Electoral College.[7] In most elections, the Electoral College has elected the candidate who received the most popular votes nationwide, except in four elections, 1824, 1876, 1888, and 2000.
All states except Maine and Nebraska have chosen electors on a "winner-take-all" basis since the 1880s.[8] Under the winner-take-all system, the state's electors are awarded to the candidate with the most votes in that state. Maine and Nebraska use the "congressional district method", selecting one elector within each congressional district by popular vote and awarding two electors by a statewide popular vote.[9] Although no elector is required by federal law to honor their pledge, there have been very few occasions when an elector voted contrary to a pledge.[10][11]
If no person receives an absolute majority of electoral votes for president, the Twelfth Amendment provides that the House of Representatives will select the president, with each of the fifty state delegations casting one vote. If no person receives a majority of electoral votes for vice president, then the Senate will select the vice president, with each of the 100 senators having one vote.

PresidentTrump is making this week "Made in AmericaWeek." Does he and the Republican Party really believe in it? Why adopt a European style socialized healthcare system? That system means rationing and lines. If we really believe in "Made in America" we will adopt a healthcare system that will help our coal workers, steel workers and all Americans. Made in America is about liberty and individualism and that we are mature enough to decide what kind of healthcare we want. In addition, what the Republicans are proposing is not going to reduce deductibles or the cost of care. This bill is a loser and should not be voted for - Mark Levin says (July 17 2017)

Today’s Republican Party opposes big government. It’s culturally conservative. Its demographic support is strongest among white voters, and it usually dominates elections in the South. And its 2016 presidential nominee has been heavily criticized for inciting racial tensions.
But things weren’t always this way.
Over the past 160 or so years, the party has undergone a remarkable transformation from the party of Abraham Lincoln… to the party of Donald Trump.

Script:
To understand the context of Republican voters settling on Donald Trump, let's take a look at the history of the GOP.
The Grand Old Party was formed by antislavery forces in the 1850’s. Back then, the Republican party was actually the progressive party in American politics. The first Republican President was Abraham Lincoln, who was elected in what political scientists say was the first of three critical elections in American history. Before Lincoln was even inaugurated, seven southern slaveholding states had seceded from the Union, setting the stage for the Civil War. Lincoln and the Republicans in congress who controlled the Union won that war and freed the slaves. But after Lincoln was assassinated, during reconstruction, the Republican Party punished former leaders of the Confederacy by not allowing them to vote or hold office, and gave former slaves the right to vote. This turned whites in the south against the Republican Party for the next 100 years and led to the creation of theKlu Klux Klan and Jim Crow laws that enforced segregation and took the vote away from blacks.
In 1896 the second critical election in American history gave William McKinley the presidency and the Republicans large majorities in both houses of congress. This time-period cemented the Republicans as the party of low taxes, conservative social policies, and anti-government intervention in the economy, although legendary President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt tried to push the Party in a more progressive direction.
Fast-forward to after the stock market crash of 1929 when the country was in the depths of the Great Depression, but the Republicans refused to take direct government intervention to help the economy, leading to the third critical election in American history, in 1932, when DemocratFranklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal Coalition defeated incumbent Republican President Herbert Hoover by 413 electoral votes. “That the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” Roosevelt then enacted the most progressive social programs in history, won reelection three times, and led the US to an eventual victory in WWII.
The Republican-controlled congress never wanted to be out of power for that long again, so they approved the twenty-second amendment to the constitution, which limited presidents to just two terms in office.
After the war Roosevelt’s Democratic successor Harry Truman integrated the U.S. military - a move that angered many white southern Democrats who began switching to the Republican Party.
In 1952, Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower - the World War IISupreme Allied Commander - became President. His centrist governing style went a long way toward normalizing Roosevelt’s expanded role for the federal government.
In 1964 Democratic President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act which was intended to end discrimination, especially in the south. This moment, more than any other, defined the parties as we still know them today, with the Democrats coming full circle from being the party of the Confederacy 100 years earlier, to ultimately embracing diversity and equal rights; whereas the Republican Party shifted significantly to the right on social issues as it happily took in the many white voters abandoning the Democrats.
This shift was on full display, as 11 southern states voted for the Republican Richard Nixon.
Six years after Nixon’s Presidency ended in disgrace after the Watergate scandal, the Republicans finally had a leader they could be proud of in the former actor and Governor of CaliforniaRonald Reagan. Reagan took advantage of a bad economy and the Iran hostage crisis to defeat sitting President Jimmy Carter in a landslide and became the father of modern conservatism with deep tax cuts and a massive buildup of the U.S. military that helped facilitate the fall of the Soviet Union.
Reagan was followed by his Republican Vice President, George H.W.Bush, who helped cement many of Reagan’s signature policies.
Bill Clinton’s democratic presidency was dangerous for Republicans in that he was a charismatic white southerner capable of making inroads with the Republican base, so to counter his appeal, they highlighted his infidelities, a tactic that was largely successful in tainting his presidency despite Clinton’s success in building a strong economy and securing a relatively peaceful world...

Trump Is Losing Support From The Republicans Standing Between Him And Impeachment

Donald Trump is not happy with Republicans in the House and Senate, but they aren’t too thrilled with him, either. Reports say that members of the Trump administration are insulting and demeaning people like Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, which isn’t a smart decision considering that these men are the ones standing between Trump and impeachment. Add to that the fact that wealthy Republican donors are growing tired of Trump, and that Republican wall of protection in the House begins to crumble. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Technically, at this point, there is only one group of people standing in the way of Donald Trump and impeachment. Those people are the Republicans in the House of Representatives led by Paul Ryan. You would think, as any rational human being would do, when you understand you only have one set of allies protecting you from certain doom basically, you'd probably want to be nice then. You'd probably not want to be a complete jackass and have members of your staff like Steve Bannon openly insulting them and calling them names and saying that they're worthless and useless leaders.
However, that’s exactly what's happening within the Trump Administration. Donald Trump is losing his only allies in Congress, and that significantly hurts his chances of surviving for four years as president. If he continues to alienate people like Paul Ryan in the House and Mitch McConnell in the Senate, because the Senate's the one that has to vote for conviction, he's not going to have anybody there to protect him when we finally get the information that we need to go forward with full-blown impeachment.
Now articles of impeachment have already been filed. Those likely will go nowhere. I'm hoping they get rescinded or hoping they get built upon if the Bob Mueller special prosecutor investigation concludes at a timely manner before these articles get decided upon. There will be something, I have no doubt, that could lead to Donald Trump's impeachment, but if he has those allies in the House, it will not go far whatsoever. It has no chance. He doesn’t seem to understand that sometimes you got to play nice with other people in order to save your own ass, because that’s what's at stake here, Mr. Trump.
Meanwhile, Steve Bannon is out there calling Paul Ryan some pretty horrible names, names that I haven't even called Paul Ryan, and you're just letting it happen. If Paul Ryan chose, he could absolutely bring those articles of impeachment to a vote. He could meet with his Republicans behind closed doors and say, "Let's get him out of there. We can work better with Pence anyway." I would suggest you understand that Paul Ryan at this point probably has a little bit more power than you do, buddy.
Furthermore, it's not just Republicans in the House of Representatives or the Senate that are starting to get annoyed with Donald Trump. The Republican donor class is tired of Donald Trump, according to a new report on Alternet, and they're ready to start dealing with President Pence. They understand that Donald Trump is not a uniter, he's not a leader. He's not somebody that a majority of Republicans in the House or Senate and even the country are going to rally behind. He's not the kind of guy that brings people together and, unfortunately for the Republican donor class, if they want those precious little gifts like tax breaks, they're going to have to have all of the Republicans working together and possibly even some of the Democrats. Donald Trump isn't the guy to do that, but Mike Pence would. He's a great puppet for the wealthy elite.
While that would be bad for the country, the Republican donor class understands that they can get their members in the House, the people they’ve bought and paid for, to turn on Donald Trump and absolutely go forward with impeachment. Things are looking really bad for Donald Trump right now, and, unfortunately, regardless of the outcome, things are going to be bad for this country. One way or another, this ruling class is going to get what they want, at least to some extent. The only way to counter that is to let it happen now because, unfortunately, I don’t think there's enough to fight it, and then vote these Republicans out of office in 2018, get Pence or Trump or whoever it is out of office in 2020 and start making the government once again work for the people instead of just the wealthy elite.
